Join physicist and mathematician Dave Thomas for a scientific examination of the Roswell, Socorro, and Aztec, New Mexico UFO stories. Dave will discuss the complexities of space travel, including traditional rockets as well as teleportation ("Beam me up, Scotty"), warp drive, relativistic effects, and wormholes, and will also describe what scientists really think happened during New Mexico's famed UFO sightings.

Dave Thomas graduated from the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, where he was awarded the Brown Medal and the Langmuir Award. Thomas is president of the science group New Mexicans for Science and Reason, and also is a Fellow of CSI (Committee for Skeptical Inquiry), the publishers of Skeptical Inquirer. He has authored several articles and presentations on his research into unusual scientific phenomena.
